Colossally Clownish Penalty Kick In Caribbean Cup Goes Viral
Trayvone Reid, a Jamaican soccer player for Mount Pleasant, executed a notably sluggish penalty kick during a CONCACAF Caribbean Cup semifinal match in Port of Spain on Wednesday. This peculiar display drew the attention of the broadcast crew, with an announcer remarking, "Reid slow-walking this penalty but he’ll take it... eventually."
The methodical approach involved Reid taking small steps as he approached the ball before ultimately unleashing his shot. The execution was blocked by Trinidad and Tobago's Club Sando goalkeeper Teshorne Ragoo. The miss proved significant as it left Club Sando one goal behind in the first leg of their two-match series. The Jamaica Observer labeled Reid's attempt as "poor," a description that seems to be an understatement. A rematch is scheduled for October 22 in Kingston, Jamaica.
